Recently there has been a new feature added to Rootsweb that allows the
GenConnect boards for the surname to be linked to the mailing list. What
this means is that every time a post is made to one of the GenConnect
boards, it is then sent to the corresponding mailing list. What might
confuse some of you is that if you reply to those messages, you will need to
reply to either the email address of the person in the post, or to the
GenConnect boards themselves (by following the link in the email and posting
a reply), rather than to the mailing list. If you send a reply to the
mailing list, it may or may not reach the poster, as they would have to be a
member of the mailing list to receive it. Many times, the posters to the
GenConnect boards ARE NOT members of the mailing list and would therefore
not receive your message. If you wish, you may also send your reply to the
mailing list, in case others on the list might be interested, but sending it
ONLY to
the list may or may not work. May we be blessed with many postings! :~)
